A : B : C = 10 x 7 : 12 x 5 : 15 x 3 = 70 : 60 : 45 = 14 : 12 : 9.
Therefore, C’s rent = Rs.
Question: 3
A started a business with Rs.21,000 and is joined afterwards by B with Rs.36,000. After how many months did B join if the profits at the end of the year are divided equally?
(A) 2

(C) 4
(D) 5
Ans: D
Suppose B joined after x months.
Then, 21000 x 12 = 36000 x ( 12 – x) = 36 x = 180.
x = 5
Hence D, joined after 5 months.
Question: 4
Three partners A, B, C start a business. Twice A’s capital is equal to thrice B’s capital and B’s capital is four times C’s capital. Out of a total profit of Rs.16,500 at the end of the year B’s share is
(A) Rs. 4000
(B) Rs. 5000
(C) Rs. 6000
(D) Rs. 6600
Ans: C
Let C = x. Then, B = 4x and 2A = 3 × 4x = 12x or A = 6x.
Therefore, A : B : C = 6x : 4x : x = 6 : 4 : 1.
So, B’s capital = Rs.
